Fortify Your Home with Advanced Security

At GHT Group, we tend to talk about the "fun" side of our business. Whether it's high-fidelity audio, home theaters, outdoor entertainment, or the magic of home automation, these areas are highly entertaining, fun, and just plain cool. But there is a more serious side to what we do, too: home security. Nothing is more serious than keeping your Santa Rosa Beach home and family safe. While we don't go to great lengths to promote this side of our repertoire, it's critically important to many of our clients. Moreover, as a full-service residential home technology company, we believe security should be deeply embedded into a smart home, not tacked on.

Start with the Basics

Home security is not just about alarm systems, yet they still form the core of most security systems. An array of sensors, such as motion detectors, glass breakage sensors, and door and window contacts, are strategically placed throughout a house for basic intrusion detection. For optimal performance and reliability, we recommend wiring these sensors wherever possible. Controlling your system can be through strategically placed keypads, typically at entry doors and in primary bedrooms. However, when security is integrated with home automation systems, these might be replaced by multifunctional keypads or touchscreens that control the security system as well as other functions. 

Life Safety Options

Your home's security is not just about deterring intruders; it's equally about safeguarding against environmental threats. That's why our systems come equipped with advanced life safety features. Smoke detectors, carbon monoxide sensors, and gas detection are seamlessly integrated to alert you at the first sign of danger, offering precious time to respond. These can be combined with home automation functions, such as flashing lights in the kitchen in the event of a detected gas leak, to create additional ways to alert of dangers.  

Professional Monitoring

Opting for a professionally monitored alarm system ensures that alerts are promptly addressed, whether a potential break-in or a life safety issue. This service extends your home's defense, providing around-the-clock surveillance and the assurance that experts are ready to dispatch emergency services the moment an alarm is triggered. Professional monitoring is not just about response; it's about a proactive approach to your family's safety and security.

Surveillance Cameras

For uncompromised reliability and quality in home security, wired surveillance cameras are the best approach. Unlike their wireless counterparts, wired cameras offer the stability of a constant power supply and a secure connection, free from the interference that can affect wireless devices. GHT Group ensures that each camera is optimally placed for comprehensive coverage. With local recording, homeowners benefit from enhanced privacy and continuous footage without the vulnerabilities associated with cloud storage. This professional installation offers a robust security solution tailored to your home's unique needs.

The Role of Landscape Lighting

Integrating landscape lighting into your home security strategy offers dual benefits: enhancing safety and beautifying your property. Strategically placed lighting not only deters potential intruders by eliminating dark spots but also ensures safe passage for residents and guests by illuminating walkways and entry points. When combined with smart home automation, these lighting systems can react to security alerts, further increasing your home’s defense. GHT Group specializes in designing landscape lighting that complements your home's aesthetics while significantly boosting its security posture.

Design, Integration, and Support

Implementing a professional home security system goes beyond basic installation. At GHT Group, the process starts with a thorough assessment of your property, pinpointing the strategic locations for sensors and control panels to ensure comprehensive coverage. Our team meticulously integrates the alarm system with your home's automation features, enhancing security and convenience. This includes connecting smart locks for secure entry, integrating lighting to deter potential intruders or signal alerts, and linking motorized shades for privacy or simulated occupancy.

The sophistication extends to remote access capabilities, enabling homeowners to arm or disarm their systems, receive real-time alerts, and monitor their property from anywhere in the world via smartphone apps. This level of control fortifies security and adds unparalleled convenience, allowing you to manage your home's safety effortlessly.

GHT Group’s commitment to your home’s security doesn’t stop post-installation. We ensure you are proficient in utilizing every feature of your new system, from setting up custom alarm and camera configurations to seamlessly integrating future smart home devices. Our goal is to provide you with a secure, intelligently integrated home that meets your needs today and adapts to tomorrow’s technology, ensuring your peace of mind.
